Consider the ways that artists in the exhibition Can You Hear Me Now? explore language and communication in a guided tour by exhibition curator Bana Kattan, Barjeel Global Fellow.

Curated mostly from the MCA Collection, the works in Can You Hear Me Now? deal with breakdowns in communication and our inability to hear each other in polarized political climates. The artists in Can You Hear Me Now? explore the struggle to communicate on levels ranging from the personal to the governmental, asking the viewer to consider which messages merit amplification, which are unduly stifled, and why.
